It was a joke. At least my wife don't want to put money in my car.... She prefer to buy new heels :) but her permission is like a present, even I pay for that

Front, rear and side skirts will be same as GTA

Hi there,
I am building a Q4 to use as a race car and am looking for a bodykit for the car.
Have you finished manufacturing the bodykit yet ? And if so are they ready for sale yet?
Many thanks,
Colin
Hello Wobbs, the body kit is not ready yet. You will be informed by Steve when it will be ready for sale. It will be in berlinasportivo's shop

No mate. We place the oem rear doors and trunk because we dont have the parts yet. When we will finish all car we will Start replacing these parts with the new one. I just was hurry to close the car to drive it and to programme my new ecu with my laptop. As I see until now the doors are very heavy. About 30- 35 kg each ( with glass etc) I hope I will be at least 70kg lighterQuote:

Thanks Steve. This week we will have ready the models of rear bumper and side skirts so I hope next week we will go for the final stage, the front bumper. Tomorrow the new and bigger intercooler will arrive too :)
Placing the new intercooler

I can see why you need the new front bumper. That intercooler is never going to fit behind a standard one.
Did you have to fit the intercooler first so you could make sure the new bumper covers everything?
Loving the work as ever.
Yes steve, i didn't want to cut the front part for placing the intercooler higher ( i don't know the word in english) so i place it in front. This doesn't matters because we will build the new bump with the intercooler placed
First drive today :)

what kind of Turbo are You using ?
is this something out of the shelf, or it is made on request for You?.
i know a lot of questins :D
Haha. Its ok about question. I have a chineese T3/T4 stage 3 wheel .64 ar from xspower. I have no lag in case with my old intercooler but in the same settings in boost controler i have 0.2 bar boost less. Ex at 60% to my dsbc boost controller i had 1.7 bar boost and with this intercooler o have 1.51 bar. I will buy a gt35r now so i will fill this intercooler better. I bought the intercooler from www.toyosports.co.uk for about 100 euros. :)
How thick is the new intercooler? Is it thicker than the old one.
Also did you manage to take any temperature measurements to compare between the old an new intercoolers?
it's really strange that almost no one makes single side (inlet/outlet) IC with downflow design, something similar to daltaparts design,Quote:

by the way heve You considered using EVO9 turbo ?
heard much opinions about very very fast spooling, and suitable power ratios.

It is 10mm thicker than the old one. The new one is 76mm thick. I hear a lot for evo's turbo but i have to change the exhaust manifold too. The second thing is that with evo's turbo i can't go to 600 or more hp. Steve i can measure the air temperature with my RP-LAB programmable ecu but now here we have 6 degrees celcium and i can't compare with previous measurments. With my old intercooler with 17 degrees celcium at 1.7 bar boost i had 39 degrees inlet air at 7000 rpm so i have to compare with same conditions
Not very good photos but we are in the final way

Is that part of the bumper based on the standard 155 bumper? Its difficult to see with it being that colour.
Are you going for this look :
or this one:
I will build the second one Steve. We build it with parts from the stock bumper. Piece by piece and it is about 50mm thicker and of course wider so a lot of work. Same filosophie for the rear bumper too. We build bumpers and sideskirts exactly as the second photo you uploaded. 100% replica for the bumpers.
